Hi, signed up today. I've been camping for 16 years and now find UK campsites so expensive. We have just returned form a 4 week trip to France, Belgium, Luxembourg and Holland. We stayed FOC in Dole, France opp the cathedral, for 4 days. We stumbled across a great site, 30 feet from a canal with numerous boats moored. Showers, toilets, washing machine, elec and waste and water facilities, £2.00 a night.
We started with a Ford Transit ambulance, converted to diesel, an Iveco 60/10, it was rusting badly and sadly had to go. Now have a Dodge Superior. It's an American A class; but only 22 feet long. I've been tinkering with it for 3 years. It's always mobile for the summer months. I've fitted a Ford Cargo engine and 6 speed gearbox. Also Cargo rear axle. It now has disc brakes all round and they're air/hydraulic. I get 18 mpg and 75 mph. I bought the Cargo for £250 and have spent £500 on parts for the conversion. Still have numerous mods in mind.
We sailed from Dover this time and needed a place to stay as we salied at 2.00 am. A friendly policeman told us to park on the seafront, wardens go home at 6.00 pm and start at 9.00 am, so you'll be fine there. No problems and only 1 mile from the ferry.
